arcgis desktop - How to count number of feature classes in geodatabase using ArcPy?

I would like to count the number of feature classes in a geodatabase. Some of the classes are in feature datasets as well. I have tried get count management, but that returns the number of rows in each feature class in the GDB.

Answer

You can run this code to get it:

arcpy.env.workspace = NAME OF GDB HERE

# Get stand alone FCs
fccount = len(arcpy.ListFeatureClasses("",""))


# Get list of Feature Datasets and loop through them
fds = arcpy.ListDatasets("","")
for fd in fds:
    oldws = arcpy.env.workspace
    arcpy.env.workspace = oldws + "\\" + fd
    fccount = fccount + len(arcpy.ListFeatureClasses("",""))
    arcpy.env.workspace = oldws


print fccount

Hope this works for you.
